So tonight me and my mom decided to drive to DQ in my car and we made it about a mile from my house and the car started makeing a noise and the pedals started shakeing. The noise was like a sound a car makes when you drive over a newly paved road with wet tar except the noise was comeing from my engine. This is probably the 10th time Ive ever driven the car and about 5 of those times was in parking lot learning to drive a stick. The car just had 2,500 worth of work done. Ive only had it for about 2 months frown.gif

Nah it's cool - the mechanic just should have known better than to replace the Tbelt but not the others while they were off anyway. I hope everything works great for a good long time now - that's the most important thing.
You're in the right place to learn about your car - many of us here couldn't change spark plugs when we came here [I have certainly learned alot even tho I had quite a bit of knowledge before hand].

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
Slow down Paul Walker.
